Google Play already shows trial versions of applications
The store of applications of the platform Android,Google Play Store, is premiere. And it is that it has received an interesting new version intended, above all, for those beta testers or testersof applications that are willing to sacrifice some quality in the user experience in order to test the advantages of an application before anyone elseThus, the application store will now show if there are beta or test versions, marking the difference with the versions available to other users.
Thus, the new version of Google Play Store that is gradually reaching all devices Android, emphasizes the community of tester users, although it also makes things easier for those who want to be. Thus, it is now possible to see if any application (as is the case of WhatsApp) has a beta or test version available to the public. To do this, all you have to do is look at the bottom of the card's description screen, where there is now a card destined for tester program The message informs that there is the possibility to test new functions, although in an application that maybe don't be too stableNext to the card, a button allows you to register and access the trial version.
The process may be delayed by several minutes, something that Google Play itself Store prompts the user. After that, you will find a message that confirms registration as a beta tester or test user, and the consequent possibility to download said version All this through the same screen, and as if it were a regular application. In addition, in the same way that the user has registered in the tester program of said tool, can leave it to re-download the official application, the one that yes it is stable and available to other users. All this without losing sight of the fact that, as of this update, the name of the application adds “(Beta)” if you have signed in as a test user .Something that will greatly help to know if you have a finished version on your mobile or not.
Apart from this, Google Play Store has added a new channel to contact the developer directly. A good way to provide feedback and feedback about bugs, issues, and instabilities found in beta version. This communication channel is integrated directly into the comments Something that makes it comfortable but strange at the same time. Thus, the user can report any bug or issue, but instead of being posted as a comment or review, is sent to the developer without leaving a record of said message.
Finally, Google Play Store also welcomes applications that have not yet been published Tools that are looking for users to test their strengths and weaknesses before being released These will also be marked as such next to their name, and allow direct contact with the developer of the same way as beta versions.
The update of Google Play Store has already been released for all mobile phones Android , although progressive That is why we will have to wait to see the card in Spain with the possibility of entering the tester program.
